Direct Tax Manager

Gifford and Partners Recruitment Limited
Yorkshire, ENG, GB Full Time

Job Description

Looking for more than another compliance role?\n
\n

Perhaps you're operating within Big 4 or Top 10 practice and wondering what life in industry could really look like.

\n

Or maybe you're already in-house but finding your current role lacks variety, challenge or genuine commercial exposure.

Joining one of the UK's leading consumer brands, you'll become part of one of Yorkshire's largest and most respected in-house tax teams, supporting a complex, fast-moving business where tax has a genuine seat at the table.

\n

You'll gain exposure across:

\n

? Employment Taxes
\n ? Corporate Tax
\n ? Tax Governance and SAO
\n ? Property Tax and SDLT
\n ? HMRC Enquiries and Audits
\n ? International Tax Matters
\n ? Business Change and Strategic Projects

\n

Working closely with the senior finance leaders and the board, covering disiplins across HR, Property, Procurement and Operations, you'll play a key role in helping the business navigate an increasingly complex tax landscape.

\n
